It has taken over a month for Microsoft to release their Windows 10 October 2018 update, addressing the numerous bugs which plagued the update's original incarnation, forcing the software giant to miss their October release window, a matter which will no doubt put a dent in the company's pride.

On top of their other changes, this OS update is designed to offer decreased system downtime, using AI and smart system management to reduce the update's size by 40% while also reducing system downtime by 31% when compared to the Windows 10 April 2018 update. Future OS updates will also use the same efficiency tweaks to make updating Windows 10 less hassle-free than ever before.

The Windows 10 October update will start getting pushed to Windows 10-based systems in the coming days, though you can choose to update your system immediately using Microsoft's official upgrade tools. Instructions on how to update your PC to the Windows 10 October 2018 update are available here.
